Palestine and Israel: One state, or two?

Published on Jun 2, 2017 For Palestinians, June 5, 2017 marks the beginning of the “Six-Day War” - also called “al-Naksa” - and 50 years of Israeli occupation, as a peace deal remains elusive. While some continue to argue that a two-state solution is the only way for Palestinians and Israelis to live in peace, others are increasingly beginning to question whether two independent states are even possible. So, which is more realistic: A single state where Palestinians and Israelis live together, or two independent states? To debate this in this UpFront special, we’re joined by Gideon Levy, Hanan Ashrawi, Lara Friedman and Yousef Munayyer.
